We are the sons of fire and thunder We ride through the mist we torch and we plunder Untamed our horses no saddles no reins Black is the blood that runs in our veins Soon the doomed will rise Greed is your demise The time has now come to reap what you sow Feeding your lies back down your throat Ravenous flames the thoughts in our minds We’ll spit on the grave of the last of your kind Now the hunter will The prey become and kneel Broken dead bodies Telling our tale Lifeless their eyes Stares of dismay Too late to repent For the deeds of your past We are the sons of thunder and fire We bring the end to your God’s desire Ravenous flames burn in our eyes While raising the knife for the last sacrifice Now the hunter is The prey, hear how he screams

Each night it arrives from the empty horizon Weary as time it sleeps in my well It colours the walls and sighs like an old song Then dies in its slumber at the sound of the bell Its fangs prey for blood on the flesh of the ocean Then dies in my water and poisons my crop It rushes inside me with each cup of wine It grows from my heart and leaves before dawn With an ebony half moon and the breath of an old well With the dagger’s memory and the atrocity of kisses With the compass of faith and the map of the stars I greet the advent of the serpent’s ordeal Its fangs prey for blood on the flesh of the ocean Then dies in my water and poisons my crop It colours the walls and sighs like an old song Then dies in its slumber at the sound of the bell With a cabeirian prayer and a Sibylic riddle of doom With the persistent words of echoing ruins Out of my catacomb labyrinth of orgiastic cold I greet the advent of the serpent’s ordeal

Crippled wounded puppets incomplete Weave silken drapes of misery and wire nets of grief Within us slides the worm of time and history Give yourself away A deaconry to vanity Rusted cog-wheels in the earth machine Carrying woes and minor misfortunes we raise a tower of sin Innocence opposed to claws and strings Give your youth away A deaconry to vanity Asleep and dreaming safe In the shade of the shadow of death Easy prey to the beast of guilt Our humble mortal art cannot describe the pains we feel Hereditary suicide epiphany Kill your dream and pray A deaconry to vanity Led by the vague footprints Chimera leaves on sand Content to hold dead unicorns buried in their hearts Acrobats and zealots come and leave en mass Until we leave the scene A deaconry to vanity

Oracles 05:15
Red lines crossing through the twilight sky Mother night is urging them to try Crimson rebels with emotions pure Not healed yet but they will find the cure The Oracles of Flame They foretold The predators will come and Their blind rage will take hold Every single soul will testify When the whirlwinds come you hear them cry Battle demons sacred in their rage Can’t be held in any man-made cage The Oracles of Flame They foretold The predators will come and Their blind rage will take hold The Oracles of Flame They foretold The predators will come and Their blind rage will take hold
5.
Your birth has locked the gate Deep and it’s getting deeper Life visions you create You can’t befriend the Reaper Your end you should embrace Old, you won’t get much older Lines that cross through your face Like frost but they are colder Transcend into the void Reach out you can’t reach further Touch the core of the black For there dwells our father Dive in his cold embrace Fault but you shall not falter Tentacles reach your soul The Great One will have his supper Desperate worms are eating their way out To watch again the light of day Pathetic fools are victimized again Like snowfall in the heart of May
6.
Free to speak in this hell of noise Free to choose while there’s no choice Free to think but it hurts my brain Free to love but there’s more to hate Goddess of despair, sinister moon arise Hopelessly I stand still before your shrine Eerie calls wake the ghost inside A serpent’s kiss and a lover’s bite A young boy turns on himself a gun Staring at a cold and dying sun Goddess of despair, sinister moon arise Hopelessly I stand still before your shrine Freeze my skin with a breath of gold Nail my palm on your wailing wall Slash my wrist and my poison vein Spill my blood sanctify the stain Goddess of despair, sinister moon arise Hopelessly I stand still before your shrine

Whitewood 08:37
Please come inside I’ll make you feel at home Innocent child In Whitewood you belong The stars aligned There is no going back A sprig of woodbine And now you have been marked Lying cold upon the altar stone 13 candles revealing scenes unknown Faceless figures and an ancient psalm Eager to greet this offering of blood This Inn eternal Resting place for my cursed heart Unholy Night For You the spirits mass
